Caligula: The Ultimate Cut may be one of the 30 greatest films of all time
The beauty, paranoia, madness, and libidinous rage had you on the edge of you seat for all 3 hours
To think they could rescue such a butchered film 40 years later. What else could be saved from studios?

Reading about this, I can’t help but think about filmmakers in the West, and in the United States in particular, and about how hard it must be when people say mean things to them sometimes on the Internet.

Cult Epics had declined to distribute the Ultimate Cut of Caligula on 4K UHD but will continue to release more Tinto Brass films in 4K UHD and Blu-ray. We wish Drafthouse success with this release! #tintobrass @cultepics avclub.com/drafthouse-releas…
Finally, the cat is out of the bag! CALIGULA: THE ULTIMATE CUT is coming to US theaters in August via Drafthouse Films!
The only question that remains is what will the collectible popcorn bucket be for *this*?!

I wrote about the revelatory Ultimate Cut of the pornographic epic CALIGULA — the second-best thing I've seen at Cannes after Scorsese's latest, which, stay tuned on that — and the transcendent joy of watching dirty pitchers with a bunch of strangers: decider.com/2023/05/20/calig…
